APCO Company manufactures various lines of bicycles. Because of the high volume of each line, the company employs a process cost system using the weighted-average method to determine unit costs. Bicycle parts are manufactured in the molding department and then are consolidated into a single bike unit in the molding department and transferred to the assembly department where they are partially assembled. After assembly, the bicycle is sent to the packing department.
please fill in the question marks and explain formulas
Cost per unit data for the 20-inch dirt bike have been completed through the molding department. Annual cost and production figures for the assembly department are presented in the schedules that follow.

Defective bicycles are identified at the inspection point when the assembly labor process is 94 percent complete; all assembly materials have been added at this point. The normal rejection for defective bicycles is 6 percent of the bicycles reaching the inspection point. Any defective bicycles above the 6 percent quota are considered to be abnormal. All defective bikes are removed from the production process and destroyed.
Required:
1. Compute the number of defective, or spoiled, bikes that are considered to be:
a. Normal
b. Abnormal
